Cataract correction has entered a new era. The Light Adjustable Lens, or LAL, gives patients a lens that can be fine‑tuned after surgery, ending the one‑size‑fits‑all approach of traditional intraocular lenses.
Developed by RxSight, the LAL is implanted during routine cataract surgery. Weeks later, once the eye has healed, your ophthalmologist uses a precise ultraviolet (UV) light source to adjust the lens. The photosensitive material inside the LAL changes shape under the light, allowing the doctor to refine your prescription based on real‑world feedback.
LAL technology suits people who:
Your surgeon will review your eye health, lifestyle goals, and medical history to confirm eligibility.
Light Adjustable Lens surgery offers flexibility no standard implant can match. If you are exploring cataract options or seeking sharper vision without glasses, talk with an eye‑care specialist trained in RxSight technology.
Residents of San Antonio can schedule a consultation with Trinidad Vision Cataract and Laser Eye Institute to learn whether LAL surgery is the right choice. Give us a call or contact us online and take the first step toward personalized, crystal‑clear sight.
